SF Gate reports awards will not be offered to non-binary runners.
They can register for the race as non-binary, but awards will only be presented to the top male and female finishers.
The CEO of the event group told SF Gate that after every race, it aims to make improvements based on customer feedback and that it looks forward to finding ways to continue making Bay to Breakers better in the future.
It's worth noting that the majority of races are struggling with this issue right now, and currently don't have prizes specifically for non-binary competitors.
